2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer

The sporty version of the 2009 Chevrolet TrailBlazer is embodied in the TrailBlazer SS, which features unique exterior styling and specific interior appointments. Big 20-inch flangeless wheels and a dropped stance on the TrailBlazer SS give the SUV an aggressive appearance, with the performance to back it up. With a specially tuned suspension where the springs are up to 25% stiffer than the LT model, and front stabilizer bars are 10% larger, the TrailBlazer provides a firmer feel and less body roll for improved handling. Propelling the 2009 Chevrolet TrailBlazer SS is the powerful LS2 powerplant. The 6.0L V-8 engine produces 390 hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, which impressively propels the TrailBlazer from 0 to 60 in 5.7 seconds. New to the Chevy TrailBlazer is a new Hydra-Matic 4L70 electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission that was beefed up to handle the extra power.

Across the model range, the 2009 Chevrolet TrailBlazer lineup includes a long list of standard equipment, including XM Satellite Radio and head curtain side air bags on all models. New features for 2009 include OnStar 8.0 with available Bluetooth connectivity for safer, hands-free phone calls, and a trio of new exterior colors: Silver Ice Metallic, Silver Moss Metallic and Sand Beige Metallic. The popular chrome that was introduced in 2008 returns for 2LT models; it includes a chrome luggage rack, chrome door handles and 18-inch chrome aluminum wheels. The package also includes perforated leather seating with heated, power-adjustable driver and front passenger seats with memory feature.
